Rights group Amnesty International has warned FIFA, football’s governing body, against expanding the Qatar 2022 World Cup to Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), raising human rights concerns in the Gulf nations, according to a British media report.

In a statement to the British online newspaper The Independent, published on Saturday, the United Kingdom-based rights group said that any plans to extend the tournament, due to be hosted by Qatar, must come with a call for both countries to improve their human rights records.
